Statutory Reports

Bid Protests

Comptroller DiNapoli believes in allowing people to raise concerns about State contract awards. Regulations, promulgated by our office, effective January 25, 2017, establish an administrative bid protest procedure to be used when an interested party asserts to the Office of the State Comptroller that the Comptroller should not approve a contract award by a public contracting entity. The Comptroller's independent review of bid protests, as well as state contracts, helps ensure fairness in State contracting and protects the interests of the State and its taxpayers.

Audit Reports

The independent review of contracts is a strong deterrent to waste, fraud and abuse in contracting. Comptroller DiNapoli issues these reports on the importance of the Comptroller’s independent contract oversight to prevent procurement abuses in New York State.

Statutory Reports

The Office of the State Comptroller (OSC) is required to produce the annual Procurement Stewardship Act (PSA) Report. Pursuant to Chapter 317 of the Laws of 2014, the PSA Report now also includes data previously reported in the Office of General Services Emergency Construction Contracts Report and the Consultant Report.

The 2016 report covers April 1, 2016 through March 31, 2017, and includes:

For reporting periods before 2014, OSC issued a separate Annual Report on the Office of General Services' (OGS) Emergency Construction Contracts. It provided a sortable listing of contracts valued at more than $10,000 awarded under the OGS Emergency Construction Contract Program during the calendar year.

For reporting periods before 2014-15, the Comptroller’s Office issued an Annual Report on the consultant contracts approved by OSC each fiscal year. It included a sortable listing of relevant consultant contracts and the corresponding New York State Consultant Services Contractor's Planned Employment forms (Form A’s).

The Prompt Contracting Annual Report provides information on the number of not-for-profit contracts approved timely and interest paid for late contracts, pursuant to the law, as well as recommendations for improving prompt contracting. New York State’s Prompt Contracting Law, Article XI-B of the State Finance Law, provides the statutory authority for this report.
